Snow Maiden

Once upon a time there lived a couple in a village. They had got married for a long time, but so far they did not have a baby yet. Every single minutes they prayed to god, begged for a baby, but it never came true.

One day, they went to a snow mountain. They made a girl from sow and they dressed her beautifully. When it got dark, they decided to go home and left the snow girl alone. The following morning someone knocked the door and asked, “who are you?” the girl said, “I’m Snow Maiden, your daughter”. The old woman was surprised and happy. “Really? Thanks god! Come in, please!” since that meeting, Snow Maiden lived with her parents. She was beautiful, kind, diligent and helpful. Her parents and all of her friends loved her very much.

One day, Snow Maiden played with her friends. They played fire. At first, Snow Maiden just looked at their play. Suddenly, her friends asked her to jump on the fire. Of course she refused it because one thing that made her maid was the fire. It’s because Snow Maiden was made of snow, so she should avoid the fire. But her friends kept on forcing her to jump on.

Finally, she could not do anything, and then she did it. She jumped on the fire and as result she melted. Her friends were sorry about this, they cried and cried hoping Snow Maiden could live again, but it was useless. Snow Maiden would not be back anymore. Her mother tried to entertain Snow Maiden’s friends and asked them to make a new Snow Maiden again. They went to a snow mountain and started making it. They expected to have the new Snow Maiden. Days passed but their dreams never came true. Poor them!
